a moment to step away from constant self critisism, food noise and body shame and return to yourself.
A blend of guided experiences, reflection, connection, and time to simply be.
Imagine giving yourself permission to step away from the constant pressure, even if only for two hours.
No fixing.
No striving.
Not trying to hide the emotional cost of it all
Just space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.

❋ A warm welcome into a space where you are accepted exactly as you are
❋ Time to slow down, breathe, and step away from the constant pressure surrounding body image
❋ Honest conversations with women who understand what it feels like to carry this mental load.
❋ Guided moments to reconnect with yourself
❋ Thought-provoking teaching that may leave you seeing your experience in a different light.
❋ A clearer sense of how to step out of the constant messaging and reconnect with what truly matters to you
for the woman who is exhausted from the constant messaging around Skinny is back and yearning to feel more connected with herself
You might feel at home here if...
✓ You’re exhausted by how much mental space your body, food, or appearance takes up.
✓ You find yourself comparing, criticising, checking, or judging your body more often than you’d like.
✓You feel overwhelmed by the current trend that clearly shows “skinny is back” (and it might even make you feel like a failure)
✓ You’re longing for a different relationship with your body, food and movement
✓ You’re longing to connect with other women experiencing similar emotions, thoughts and feelings
✓ You enjoy retreat environments including meditation, journaling, self enquiry and open exchange (optional)
This might not be your cup of tea if…
✕ You’re looking for a webinar style experience.
✕ Your main focus is weight loss or changing your appearance.
✕ You’re uncomfortable with the idea of sharing or connecting with others, even in a gentle, optional way.
✕ You prefer a purely social gathering without moments of introspection or stillness.
Meet you’re retreat facilitator Marisa
Hey you, I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m a qualified, accredited coach helping women around the world heal their relationship with their body, food and exercise.
This retreat is dear to my heart as I know exactly what it feels like to be stuck in a cycle of body hate, food anxiety and guilt and the pressure to “fit in”.
I cannot wait to share this retreat moment with you. even if it is just 2 hours, I know our time together will be magical and exactly what we all need right now.
For years, I hated my body. I wasted time, energy, and my youth chasing a version of myself I could never quite attain. I know what it feels like to feel stuck, frustrated, and not “good enough” in your own skin.
Today, I accept — and sometimes even love — my body. I love food, movement, and life itself. And I know that all of this is possible for you too.
